3 Reasons to attend our pre-game Tweet-up this Friday

The Pelicans are on a winning streak and the season is coming to a close – those are good enough reasons to celebrate early this Friday night but here’s 3 more reasons why you should attend our pre-game Tweetup this Friday at the Little Gem Saloon.

#3. Twitter is fun. Twitter is becoming a regular second screen experience for us NBA junkies. But what happens when the people you follow on Twitter are hanging out in real life just 5 feet away from you? In most cases it can get a little awkward but we vow to make this as least awkward as possible with food and booze.

If you were really fired up, Eric, you would have continued to use all caps and the exclamation points would have been on the end of that second sentence too. But it’s cool. I’ll buy you a beer this Friday afternoon and we can talk about it.

#2. The Pels are on a 4 game winning streak. If you’re somewhere else from 5:00-6:30p this Friday then it might be your fault if they drop the game to the Salt Lake City Jazz. Imagine the guilt you would feel if that were to happen. You would lose more sleep than Lance Thomas did that night he didn’t score the 100th point. You would lose more sleep than Pierre the Pelican did the first time he looked in a mirror. You would lose more sleep than Pierre the future Pelican does every night because according to his Twitter, he is a zombie that never, ever sleeps.

#3. There’s only 5 home games left in the inaugural season of the Pelicans. Pretty soon we’ll be talking about how boring the off season is and we’ll desperately gobble up every news piece on the team as we anxiously away late October. You’ve got to soak it all up right now. You’ve got to attend every home game, every watch party, and every pre-game party that you can. I only know of one pre-game party this Friday. Hope to see you there.
